Earlier this year, the Walmart Birkin (a.k.a. the Wirkin) and Amazon’s Birkin-style bag took social media by storm when sharp-eyed shoppers found the Hermès-inspired handbag dupes on the discount retailers’ websites.
Several versions of the iconic-looking bag were made available and then quickly discontinued on both Walmart and Amazon after thousands of shoppers flooded the sites to buy the dupe. Now, however, a couple of new Birkin-style bags have emerged on Amazon.

Two-tone style.
One of the Hermes-style bags that got a restock is this two-tone design. The bag measures 13 inches and is made of waterproof PU leather. The removable strap lets you wear this as a handbag, shoulder bag, or crossbody bag.

Very Hermes colors.
If you want the Birkin look but not an exact replica, Amazon shoppers like the “Lock & Charm” bag above. It measures approximately 12 x 14 inches in size and is crafted from a textured vegan leather with durable stitching and a reinforced base for durability. The lock closure in the center of the bag is just decorative, though a main zippered compartment helps you close the bag and keep your belongings in place. A bonus: this satchel bag includes a matching wristlet wallet. Choose from more than a dozen colors online.

Crocodile pattern.
Another one of the best Birkin-style bags on Amazon is this crocodile faux leather purse, which comes in black, mint green, pink, red, tan, and white. It features the classic buckle on the top and a boxy, structured silhouette. It features drop handles and a detachable shoulder strap, which is great for traveling or commuting. Measuring just under 13 inches wide, it’s ideal for office days, errand runs, and evening outings.

Great color selection.
Lastly, there’s this Hermes-style bag from Nymera. It comes in a few muted, chic colors and includes a matching wallet to keep inside.
Of course, even though the Walmart Birkin is no longer in stock (at least as of this writing), you can actually buy a real Birkin on Walmart.com. The site has teamed up with REBAG to offer authenticated, pre-loved luxury handbags and accessories. See their full selection here.

Pre-loved Birkin.
On an earnings call, Hermès CEO Axel Dumas officially had “no comment” on the Walmart Birkin, though he let slip that he was “irritated” by copycat bags. Still, the CEO concedes that no one will believe that they are getting a real Hermès bag, since sites like Walmart and Amazon aren’t selling counterfeit versions, but rather similar-looking alternatives. Dumas added that it was “quite touching” to see the desire in shoppers to get their hands on the real thing.
